Microscale ecology regulates particulate organic matter turnover in model marine microbial communities
Particle-attached bacteria play a key ecosystem role by degrading complex organic materials in the ocean. Here, the authors use model marine microbial communities to show that community composition and interspecies interactions can significantly slowdown the rates of particle turnover in the environ...
